On Earth Day, Friday, April 21, Montgomery Parks and Brookside Gardens hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the completed renovation of the Garden Gateway to this botanical gem in Wheaton, MD.

As part of the renovation, three new sculptural pieces by Bolton Hill neighbor Linda DePalma were permanently installed at Brookside.

The rain held off, pleasing the crowd, which included state officials, the director and staff of the Gardens, children from the neighborhood school, and the numerous park lovers who flocked to the event.

The DePalma pieces included in the park restoration are Sassy Bench, Fern Gate, and Gingko Canopy.
